Makes sense in a perfect world. I’m sure the shit stains at the top of the food chain will find a way to kibosh this. Love to see Monsanto go down hard.

ReplyCannot share. Monsanto is evil, and so is this! It is still about killing other life forms for the convenience of humans…
ReplyKind of curious as to the effect on benificials does this also kill ladybugs, honey bees, predictor wasps and mites
Replyplants have natural repellents towards bugs, but because of monsanto it would take 10 yrs for the seeds of plants to rejuvenate themselves back into their original state. anyway u look at it, putting chemicals on plants to “get rid of” bugs is not safe for anyone or the environment
ReplyMonsanto has shares in hundreds of food production companies. Check out who has the biggest share in Kaloggs.
ReplyI had the pleasure of meeting this incredible man a few years back – he IS the real deal and we must take heed. Pass this on please
ReplyWold be incredible if we could defeat Monsanto! This is a wicked, wicked organisation!
Replyinsects have very similar body structures, I don’t know. I’m a little worried about this. Arn’t the bees dying of some kind of fungus?
ReplyTo give you two examples predating 2006, when you state he obtained his patent.
‘Crop Protection: an international journal of pest, disease and weed control Vol. 22 No.3, 2003, N K Maniania et al. ‘A field trial of the entemogenous fungi Metarhizum anisopliae for control of Thrips tabaci’, pages 553-559
Phytoparasitica Vol. 30, No.1, 2002, H Azaizeh et al., ‘Biological control of the Western Flower Thrip, Franlianella occidentalis in cucumber using the entemopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae’, pages 18-24.
Others in the literature too.
ReplyInsects are an important part of growing food, like bees! We don’t want to kill all the insects! We need to build healthy soil
ReplyYou realize that Monsanto does not even manufacture insecticides. People for years have been trying to use biopesticides with mixed results. My first job out of college we were looking at fungal agents for just that. That was 36 years ago.
Replyi really want to fight Monsanto but i feel sad for the little bugs. i hope they don’t do that to me
ReplyThat is so much BS. Scientists have been trying to use fungi, bacteria, and viruses as biocontrol agents for over 40 years….with only limited success with specific pests. You realize that Monsanto does not even make pesticides?
ReplySherry Schultz Always amazes me when a self-apointed expert who should know better decides to debunk something like an arrogant mouthpiece, only to find out his basic premise is false!
ReplyI will stand by my statement. Monsanto does not manufacture Pesticides or insecticides. They do manufacture herbicides and some pre-emergence nematocides for seed pretreatment. It is a matter of semantics whether you want to classify an herbicide as a pesticide. There is a pending purchase of Monsanto by Bayer (who is one of the largest chemical manufacturers in the world and that do produce huge quantities of pesticides) BTW , I will be glad to have a serious discussion about biotech, and agriculture as I spent 35 years of my life in the field. The early part of my career involved biological control of Fusarium in tomatoes and ornamentals using siderophore producing soil Pseudomonads. I will be glad to put my personal knowledge up against your Univ of Google degree, any day.
ReplyThis is untrue. They manufacture insecticides. Why would you preface your whole statement with that?
ReplyPlease supply the name of the isecticide that they produce. And I don’t mean GM BT. At one time they produced insecticides but when they bought Pharmacia they sold off the insecticide business. If you can supply me the name of a currently produced insecticides from Monsanto, I will stand corrected.
ReplyGlyphosate is not an insecticide but a herbicide. Do I need to go into the biochemical differences?
ReplyHere you go, Blair…please look under “products.” This is where I got my information.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monsanto
ReplyThere is not one insecticide listed under current products. Glyphosate is NOT an insecticide.
ReplySandy McConnel I am not self-appointed and I am an expert compared to you Google educated scholars. Monsanto is primarily a seed company and they DO NOT produce pesticides. Please educate yourself.
ReplySandy McConnel self appointed? Spending 35 years in the field makes Blair Kunka an expert, unlike you
ReplyHey you retards up here. Let me tell you for a FACT in debating with Blair Kunka. You have shown up to an M1 Tank battle with a slingshot. This man IS an expert and knows precisely what he is talking about. Go crawl back in your uneducated holes.
ReplySue Chard I put significant confidence in what Blair Kunka says. You have shown your lack of debating skills by simply calling names, no content or facts!
ReplyI agree with Claudine! I’ve seen this post for years. Although I thought I also saw this photo with the claim that he discovered a way to biodegrade plastics. GET ON WITH IT!
ReplyPaul Stamets was threatened that he and his family would lose their lives if he ever sold this. So he reluctantly decided not to, and moved to a safe haven in Canada. I personally know someone who has spoken with paul stamets about this.
ReplyIf it showed efficacy, some other large company would have bought the patent rights and would have been selling it as well. If it truly worked. Monsanto would buy the rights and sell it. So that leads me to believe that it does not work that well. Anyone can patent anything. That does not prove that it works.
ReplyThese comments are worth considering. The masses must start to be heard . Is this real??
ReplyI’ve been seeing this article for a while.. ? When will he finally destroy Monsanto..?
ReplyIm calling bullshit, this has been floating about for years, and bugger has ever been done.
ReplyMy question would be what happens if people eat the fungus does it over take their biological functions?
ReplyRead this quite a few years ago. It’s been twelve years since the patent. What’s changed? Did someone get paid off or to shut up? This is mightily overdue.
